The manuscript of survival – part 331

The times ahead may be construed as chaotic for many, but as you have been told before, chaos does not need to entail fear. You have been taught well dear ones, as you have managed to wrestle yourselves away from the old prison of fear and started to breathe the air of freedom of choice. For that is what all of this is really about: to stay within the confines defined by the society that you live amongst, or to start to set out on the road defined by your willingness to go above and beyond the limitations stipulated for all the so-called normal human beings on this beautiful planet of yours.

You have already gotten a taste of what this freedom of choice can give you, in the manner of connecting not only with the truest parts of yourself, but also with others who adhere to the same idea of enlightenment in all of its forms. So we know this will not come as a surprise to you when we say that freedom also comes with a whole net set of challenges, as it means not being able to always follow someone else’s paths. For you are indeed trailblazers in every way, and as such, you have learned to trust your own instincts whenever you come across a fork in the road leading off into unknown territory. For where others would choose the well-travelled road, you have again and again dared to push aside the bushes covering up the other, less defined paths and dared to stride forth in that direction.

And you have done this again and again, found your own path, well separated from the highway that others have instinctively chosen whenever they have come across this same fork in the road. And now, there will be many people around you finding themselves in the same situation, as they for the first time will actually become aware that they too have a choice, and they will see that there is indeed another path running off this highway they have more or less unconsciously been following their whole life. And thanks to you, they will see that this less obtrusive path have been travelled by others before them, and as such, their choice will be less difficult than the choices you have all had to make. For you went into unchartered territory again and again, while they will all have your footsteps to follow.

And as you are the ones taking the lead, you too will also find yourselves at a new fork in the road, and this time, we think you all will have a strong inkling to ponder which direction to take. For you can choose to continue onwards and forwards, or you can choose to backtrack your steps, for this time, the challenge of choosing might seem a little bit more daunting than usual. We are not implying that anything catastrophic is looming on the horizon, far from it. Rather, we are saying that you will all encounter a point on this journey where the awesomeness of what you see waiting ahead might seem a little bit too overwhelming at first.

So again we say, you will once again find strength in numbers, and know that even if that shimmering glow of greatness ahead might lead you to feeling once again less than worthy to step forwards and be acknowledged, you are all more than capable of accepting this challenge too. And remember, you are all bound together by these glowing filaments of light, so even if you feel less than ready to take another step up as it were, know that you are all supported not only by each other, but also by this infinite web of light. So when you find yourself standing at this crossroads, unsure as to whether you are bold enough to continue on towards that glimmering light, do not be afraid to say so. You will not be thought less of, far from it, for we know that the greatness that awaits you can seem more than a little bit daunting. You are made of the same stuff as stars dear ones, but still, you might feel more like brittle little starfish on the beach. So again we say, reach out to each other and comfort those that needs to be comforted, steady the ones that seem a little unsteady, and together, you will all be far better equipped to step bodly forth towards your destination.

Dear friends!
As always, it brings me much joy to log on and read your comments here at the Pond. I will be more of an ”infrequent guest” here myself in the week ahead as I will be spending time with my family, but I will of course post any messages that comes through. We have a Gathering coming up this Sunday July 7, and I am sure we will all get some information about that from the CCs.

I want to share something with you that is very much connected to some of the latest messages from the CCs. I “stumbled across” a very interesting video on youtube the other day, and a part of that video showed a stem cell researcher talking about something that is actually called “imaginal cells”. It refers to the cells within a living body that is programmed to survice a “chaos period” and then literally start a new building an entirely new organism, and he used the process from caterpillar to butterfly to describe it.

In a caterpillar, all the cells are programmed to do a specific job, and they continue to do so as the caterpillar continues to grow. At the certain stage of that caterpillar’s life, the growth stops, and all the cells within it feels that “something” is going on. Suddenly, everything that these cells have taken for granted seem to slow down, and all the systems they have been a small part of ceases to function as normal. And the result of this is of course a sense of chaos and fear, which leads to self destruction in many of these cells. But there are other cells within this organism, with the exact same genetic makeup as the other cells that reacts in a very different way. For they have a ”different vision” as he called it, and they are these so-called ”imaginal cells” that actually makes the butterfly from this ”cellular chaos” inside the caterpillar.

And so again this recurring image of us as butterflies, but it seems that we start out as these imaginal cells. I found this beautiful desciption when I googled the words ”imaginal cells”. Here it is:

THE IMAGINAL CELL STORY

The caterpillar’s new cells are called ‘imaginal cells.’
They are so totally different from the caterpillar cells
that his immune system thinks they are enemies… and gobbles them up.

But these new imaginal cells continue to appear. More and more of them!
Pretty soon, the caterpillar’s immune system
cannot destroy them fast enough.
More and more of the imaginal cells survive.
And then an amazing thing happens!

The little tiny lonely imaginal cells start to clump together
into friendly little groups.
They all resonate together at the same frequency,
passing information from one to another.
Then, after awhile, another amazing thing happens!

The clumps of imaginal cells start to cluster together!
A long string of clumping and clustering imaginal cells,
all resonating at the same frequency,
all passing information from one to another there inside the chrysalis.

Then at some point,
the entire long string of imaginal cells
suddenly realizes all together
that it is something different from the caterpillar.
Something new! Something wonderful!
…and in that realization
is the shout of the birth of the butterfly!

Since the butterfly now “knows” that it is a butterfly,
the little tiny imaginal cells
no longer have to do all those things individual cells must do.
Now they are part of a multi-celled organism—
A FAMILY who can share the work.

Each new butterfly cell can take on a different job—
There is something for everyone to do.
And everyone is important.
And each cell begins to do just that very thing it is most drawn to do.
And every other cell encourages it to do just that.

Thank you Aisha for that imaginal cell story! That´s the way it is for all of us I think, and the Pond is a very good place to “resonate together at the same frequence passing information from one to another”. Great!!!

LOL Love it! this is so interesting, as a student of science I was very aware of this process and why the idea of the cocoon turning into the butterfly always had a special meaning to me, because I knew the caterpillar must make a leap of faith-release itself to chaos (hello Kali!) and then total transformation–it perches on the edge of death to its form and comes out more beautiful and more free–Very cool! Enjoy your family aisha and as always much love! alex

Oh, so very interesting. This is the second time today I hear the story about the caterpillar and the butterfly and what happens in between. The first story was talking about how to start nourishing yourself from prana instead of food.

Wonderful butterfly story, Aïsha. A gradual morphing process of “transubstantiation and mutation”. We can observe the inside process and the exchange in our imaginal universe through metalogical stories, visions or perceptions while we are asleep or in hypnagogic states. The imaginal cells follow the plan of our consciousness. One day there should be a sudden quantum leap touching a part of, or all humanity.

The Inner Child… Childish metalogical stories in Wonderland. Always the same story through other lenses or on another fractal “level”, with the eyes of a Child. There are thousands of them – an infinite number, in the personal Wonderland and they all reflect the individual soulplan. Even if we experiment difficulties, the Inner Child has a different point of view and watches / interpretes things unfolding with humor 🙂 Love -D-

TOGETHER TOGETHER WE GIVE EACH OTHER COMFORT BY knowing we are many through reading these blogs through talking to some people through books and information so yes walk on sisters and brothers walk on Iréne walk on do not look left or right just walk on—so be it so it is so it is done NOW

Thank you for this message Aisha and the CCs… Not been able to get here much and will shortly be heading to the US for a week or so as my brother’s partner has passed away unexpectedly. Naturally he is distraught and I will be going to support him.

Bless you Philip. Go well, my brother! Be the Loving Light that you are to your brother and family. I know they’ll be greatly assisted by your being there with them.
Sending you lots of Love also,
~Billy

Last night my daughter and her friend went to the One Direction concert (the name is not lost on me! LOL) and the concert was at a venue by the ocean. We went to pick them up and parked in a side lot and then walked down to the sea shore but were unable to get onto the beach to put our toe in the water–so we connected etherically with this vast Atlantic Ocean…

when my daughter came out of the concert she didn’t want to walk to the far end of the parking lot-so we drove closer and got into a traffic tangle–as I was sitting there-all I wanted to do was turn around and go against the flow….I knew that was the way to freedom–that was the way to move in vast space and comfort…patience wasn’t the issue, I absolutely do not mind waiting in patience but in vast space as opposed to congestion…

I feel this in my life strongly and I feel it in this message of the CC’s…we can choose either to wait patiently in a space or on a path that is peaceful and beautiful and wild and our own, or we can wait on a path that is more than well trodden…I choose to be on the wild path…

Thanks for your sharing Alex. I´ll be on the wild path with you – nothing will stop me now;) I´ve been tested a lot this spring and I feel that my caterpillar has done a great job and is almost finished now 😉

My cat got very sick this week, and through my experience of caring for him, I became awakened. I released attachment to outcomes which causes suffering, fear, and restrictions. We hear so much about the need to release attachment, suffering, fear, negative thinking etc, but they are just words until you understand them on a feeling level. By releasing this, it has made room for the empty space to open up that allows the new to arrive. I thank my cat Metatron, named after Archangel Metatron, for taking this upon him and being the catalyst for change in my life. Let us all allow the highest and most extraordinary to come in for us, and not be timid or feel we aren’t up to accepting it, for we have worked long and hard to get to this point, and we have earned it. So let us all go forth undaunted.

Aisha! I think I liked YOUR comments about Us (the ‘imaginal cells’) more than I did the message from the CC’s! (No detraction from YOUR wise and lovely words, CC’s — I know you know that! And I DO hear you laughing, don’t think I can’t. . . 😉 ). Beautifully expressed, as is the description you found and posted. Life as a HU-man Butterfly, here we COME!!!
Also, I’d like to say to the CC’s, BRING IT ON!!! I am SO ready to step into my/our greatness — and help others to do so as well. It’s already happening with and within me, stronger every day now. Visons, messages, Energies, visitations, etc. If anybody out there needs some support, let me know.

“reach out to each other and comfort those that needs to be comforted, steady the ones that seem a little unsteady, and together, you will all be far better equipped to step bodly forth towards your destination.”
I love this part of the missive. I’ve been holding back from commenting for a while, but I feel the urge to connect again.
The missive says BOLDLY, and that’s where it resonates with me, for it’s a phrase from Star Trek, “to boldly go where no man has gone before”. Since yesterday I feel more connected with my body in a very profound way. I feel like my body is a starship (with great sensory systems) and my Higher Self is the captain of this beautiful spaceship.
I feel a deep connection with my body, an integration. We are One, I can truly sence that. I can also sence, just like the CC’s mentioned, that We are on the brink of something really GREAT. It’s feels just like what the CC’s said:
” we are saying that you will all encounter a point on this journey where the awesomeness of what you see waiting ahead might seem a little bit too overwhelming at first.”
Me and my body can truly sence this awesomeness. I know it is there right in front of me/us, but I dare not fully gaze upon it. It truly is too beautiful and all overwhelming to behold. Is this really meant for me\us? I just can’t believe it’s Power and Glory and Light.
So my dear family, I am glad we are all together to support eachother as we take our first step into this wonderful new event.

This summer, my family and I (two daughters and my wife) are going to spend our vacation in southern England.
We haven’t planned anything yet (I didn’t want to). I’d love to hear if anyone has any suggestions as to what inspirational places to visit and where to stay?
XOXO JayJay

I wish my genetic family was as wise as the pond family. They think I’m lost in the brush, talking to myself about a bunch of weird stuff which just doesn’t have anything to do with making moremoremore money.
It’s annoying and frustrating to me to see them sleep walking and strongly resisting this birth of an age.
I know they have to go at their own pace, it’s just that we could have a lot more fun if they would wake up.
sigh

Yes Otmn – I know exactly what you are talking about. That´s one of the most painful things to handle on this path, to experience that people that you love the most go in another direction. You really need a stable grounding, a lot of love and faith to handle that.

I just know that this path is right for me irrespective of what may happen in the future. So it is.

I expect this summer to be rather bewildering, and the best thing I can do is to take care of myself in the best way I can, enjoy my gardening, walk in the woods, have a good time with my real friends, rest when I need to and connect to the light and my higher self continuously.

Lots of love to you Otmn – and don´t forget to try Spheres of Light in these matters 🙂

Otmn, what Birgitta said feels so right… but I might also add a little of my experience on this subject.
I went through a time when I too was frustrated and annoyed at my husband for not thinking like me. He said he couldn’t even fake a conversation about what I would talk about. So I learned to keep it to myself. When I did, he was caught off guard… he wasn’t used to not hearing about it. .. he saw I had a kind of ‘quiet contentment’ going on inside.
I think eventually he became annoyed and frustrated himself…. ‘cause now he’s starting to ask questions! And I keep the answers short, it’s really hard tho‘, ‘cause it’s a lot of fun for me to talk about the ‘weird stuff’, but knowing he is wondering is fun in itself.
Thank you for sharing.
Love to all of you,
Sally

I like this Sally! I have the same with my wife, Hellen.
She thinks there is nothing “wrong” with her, so she doesn’t need to awaken/to change. One day when she does awaken, she’ll see the difference though.
Love, JayJay

Checking in at this beautiful pond with a heart filled request.
Will you friends say a prayer for all the families of the 19 firefighters here in Arizona today? The animal rescue workers could also use a prayer or two my animal friends.

Sedona is covered with a thick blanket of smoke from the fire over the mountain in Prescott and Yarnell areas. We have no sky today, even the sun is not allowed out from under this smoky blanket.

I wonder if anything has been written that mentions fire and rain will be a sign of a great change that’s a coming? I read July 8th could be a very important date for all of us.

Bless you all for the prayers.

In Arizona, we are sadly burning up. This fire is wiping out lives and eyes are weeping many, many tears today.

Terri, you have my prayers. I was just out on vacation in beautiful Sedona last week. The energy was very intense. I’m so sad and sorry you are going through this. Stay safe and please keep us all posted on how you’re doing.

Oh Terri, much love to all of you… the families, the rescue workers, and the beautiful animals. I can surely relate. I live in Southern Oregon where I’ve personally experienced exactly what you’re going through. It’s a stressful time for everyone and everything.
I don’t know about fire and rain being a sign for great change… but I feel a change has already taken place and if we can grab hold of it and make it personal, great things will surely happen. Altho’ I understand it’s tough to see Light through darkened skies…..
Let your healing tears fall freely.
Sending Peace to you.
Love,
Sally

Sending love and healing light your way Terri for all effected by this situation. You are indeed correct in feeling that the fire element and the water element are involved in cleansing our dear mother Sophia-Gaia during this transition. Both in large quantities cause serious issues for our human family, but both bring new life to the land and wash away or burn away the detrius left from stagnation. Sending light that both elements can do the cleansings in the gentlest but also most effective way possible for all involved. Hugs! Alex

I am so ready for this tranformation! I long for it with near desperation. Then I feel almost ashamed that I feel “done” with my current state of physicality. Yet this urge to change feels soooo strong, natural and deeply rooted. There’s a part of me that is scolding myself, saying, “If youu really loved Gaia, really felt One with her, you would be joyful and content in whatever form you are in.” Anyone else ever struggle with this?

Dear Anna Helen, there’s no reason to feel guilty to change. We change all the time. Does the catterpillar feel guilty because it’s changing into a beautiful butterfly? Do you feel guilty for being awake? Guilt is not of the issue. Only Love.
Love, JayJay

Wow, JayJay! The question of do I feel guilty for being awake…that really hit home. You are so right! I had not thought of it in that way. Thank you so much for the reply and the hug! You’ve really helped me.
Love and hugs to you! Anna Helen

Dear Anna Helen, welcome to this Pond! I think you will find you are not the only one here struggling with this, but I agree with JayJay – no need to feel ashamed about these feelings. We KNOW that we are evolving into something else, so this impatience can be very, very strong at times. I see it as a sign that we are already well aware of what we will turn into. The caterpillar does not know it will becoma a butterfly, but we do, so we all feel ready to stop crawling and start flying as soon as possible.
Love and light from me, Aisha

Hello, Aisha! It’s very nice to be in this pond. I’ve been reading your messages for a good long while now (on 2 other websites) and have been so grateful for your work. I didn’t realize all of you guys were here on your blog discussing things and supporting each other. So nice! And yes…the fact that we are aware that we are changing…that really amps up the anticipation. Glorious, glorious, glorious!!! Thanks so much, Aisha. For everything.
Namaste, Anna Helen
